Gold Hill, Shaftesbury - a photo on Flickriver

            This location has been well photographed over the years and is famous for being part of a Hovis television advert during the 1970's. It has also featured in the film Far From the Madding Crowd written by Thomas Hardy.

Gold Hill is a busy tourist attraction and many of the houses are Grade II listed buildings which gives them legal protection from development and change thereby maintaining the character of the area.
